I rarely write reviews, but I felt compelled to respond to all the negative feedback that made me nervous about my stay.

The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helped with a super quick check-out process—no delays at all. Heads up: there’s a $100 refundable deposit, but you’ll get it back when you leave.

The bathroom is fully equipped with all essentials—except for toothbrushes, which are standard—but otherwise, it's thoughtfully stocked.

The check-in process was seamless—received all the necessary details via email ahead of time, and everything was straightforward. Upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised to find the fridge stocked with water, chocolate, and ice, plus coffee and wine waiting on the counter. It felt like a warm welcome from the start.

All amenities were present and accounted for, including a washer and dryer—though we didn’t end up using them. The neighborhood is charming, quiet, and feels safe. The only minor issue was the ceiling fan in the second bedroom—it’s slightly unbalanced, making a noticeable noise when running, which made it hard to sleep with. But honestly, that’s just a tiny detail in an otherwise fantastic stay. The location is great, the space is airy and well-maintained, and the value is excellent. I’d absolutely recommend this rental to anyone visiting Long Beach.
Our stay at Pine Ave Inn was extremely disappointing from the very beginning. We didn’t feel comfortable at any point during our visit. When we arrived for check-in, we waited nearly 20 minutes with no staff appearing to assist us. While waiting, I walked around the property trying to find someone for help, and what I saw wasn’t reassuring—dirty mattresses with visible stains, grimy floors in the rooms, and overall poor maintenance. Three rooms had their doors wide open, which only added to the uneasy feeling. The lack of cleanliness and professionalism made us feel unsafe. We decided not to proceed with checking in and left to book another motel nearby. This experience was far below expectations, especially considering the price. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone looking for a clean, safe, and welcoming stay.

I booked a room at Hotel Salina for my dad and his wife to stay a few days while visiting their son in Long Beach. The location was perfect—easy access, quiet neighborhood, and just a short walk from local spots. The room itself was clean, spacious, and had a very comfortable bed with all the essentials: good lighting, working AC, plenty of outlets, and a nice-sized bathroom. My dad had to leave early due to a flight change and forgot to collect his incidental deposit back. I was actually worried about it, but the hotel manager called me personally to let me know what happened. Even better, they processed a refund through Venmo and sent it directly to me so I could pass it on to my dad. That kind of honesty and proactive service is rare these days—it really stood out. I’ve stayed at many hotels before, but this level of care and transparency is unforgettable. If you're in the area, especially for family visits or a quick getaway, I highly recommend Hotel Salina. It’s not just a place to sleep; it feels like home.
We were so grateful for the early check-in option—our music festival ended late, and having a place to rest before our trip was a lifesaver. The room had just been recently renovated, and it showed: everything was spotless, fresh, and well-maintained. The mattress was an absolute highlight—so comfortable that I actually asked the front desk if they sold them! It’s not every day you find a hotel bed that makes you want to take it home. The location is great too, just a short walk from downtown Long Beach, and super convenient if you’re exploring by foot or public transit. This stay exceeded expectations, and I’d definitely book again without hesitation.
